"When I get back, I'll try to find you a suitable girl."
Xiao Yuqin smiled at Wang Tiezhu.
“Aunt Xiao, please don’t. We’re all rough men. City girls are too precious to look down on us…”
Wang Tiezhu quickly shook his head. They knew they were peasants and had no interest in city girls; city girls were all rich young ladies.
They have bad tempers, can't work, and besides, they're from the countryside, so they can't offer the same good conditions as people in the city.
Don't ruin that girl's life.
“I don’t like hearing that. You are Yu’er’s good brothers. You may be in a bad situation now and not yet able to move to the city, but what about in the future?”
"I don't believe I'll stay here my whole life!"
Xiao Yuqin looked at the five of them; they were all tall and strong, and actually quite good-looking, just a bit dark-skinned.
They were both very capable at housework. Last night, she thought that since they were all men, they wouldn't know how to clean up, but when she came out, the yard was spotless.
Even the bowls, chopsticks, and plates were washed spotlessly clean.
This really surprised Xiao Yuqin.
My impression of him improved a lot.
A man who can do the work is definitely not bad.
"Aunt Xiao, what you're saying..."
Wang Tiezhu felt a little embarrassed after being praised by Xiao Yuqin.
They're nowhere near as good as Xiao Yuqin described.
"Don't underestimate yourselves. I know my son. If you weren't good enough, why would he value you so much?"
Upon hearing Xiao Yuqin's words, a smile flashed in Qin Yu's eyes.
"Mom, are you using this opportunity to praise your own son?"
Xia Lan laughed.
"Oops, you guys spotted us?"
Xiao Yuqin laughed heartily.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Wang Tiezhu couldn't help but laugh.
I thought Xiao Yuqin would be a very proper rich lady, but I didn't expect her to be so easygoing and joke with them.
It quickly closed the gap considerably.
"See? Not all of us city folks are arrogant and haughty..."
Xiao Yuqin patted Wang Tiezhu.
“You’ll definitely have a chance to go to the city in the future. I’ll keep an eye out for good girls for you! When you marry a wife, you shouldn’t be afraid of her suffering. Just try your best to create opportunities for her.”
Xiao Yuqin said earnestly.
It might be tough at first, but if the two of you work together, things will get better.
"Yes, Aunt Xiao is right! We'll listen to you. You help us find someone, and the five of us brothers will definitely give you a big red envelope!"
Wang Tiezhu replied with a smile.
"That's more like it! I've been waiting for your big red envelopes!"
Xiao Yuqin replied that she did indeed have a few nice girls.
What are you talking about?
Zhao Xiaolong carried Tuantuan back and saw Wang Tiezhu smiling. He immediately ran over and asked curiously.
"Aunt Xiao said she'd introduce us to some nice girls from the city! We'd better work hard with our brother!"
Wang Tiezhu glanced at them and then, smiling, relayed what Xiao Yuqin had just said to them.
"Really? Aunt Xiao, I'm really looking forward to your introduction!"
When Zhao Xiaolong heard that she was a girl from the city, his eyes lit up instantly.
He always used the excuse of wanting to marry a city girl to stop his parents from pressuring him to get married!
He genuinely wanted to marry a city girl; he wanted a girl he could talk to, not someone he only talked to about work all day.
Look at their eldest brother, when has he ever let his sister-in-law do any work?
My older brother said that as men, we should treat our wives well since it's not easy for us to get married.
"Really, really! I do have a few nice girls with me..."
Xiao Yuqin nodded seriously.
"They are all good girls, but their families are a bit harsh on them, and the girls are thinking of marrying far away."
Xiao Yuqin couldn't help but sigh when she talked about the girls.
She got to know these girls because one day on her way home from buying groceries at the market, she saw them huddled in a corner keeping warm.
It was the dead of winter, and the girls were wearing only thin clothes. When asked why they were outside, they were asked...
They said that when their older or younger brother brought their girlfriends home, they were afraid that the women would look down on them if they saw them at home, so they told them to walk around outside and not to come home until dark.
They had just met by chance, and for similar reasons, they decided to get together and huddle together to keep warm.
Xiao Yuqin invited them to her home, since Qin Yao and Qin Jun were usually at the military base and she was usually alone at home.
So she let the girls stay at her house for a day.
I got to know them.
I also feel sorry for what they went through.
When asked what they wanted most, their answer was surprisingly that they wanted to marry someone far away and never return home.
What a disheartening answer!
They were looked down upon at home for being freeloaders. Jobs in the city were limited and usually given to the sons, leaving the girls to stay at home, waiting to get married and receive a dowry.
Her only hope in life was to get married.
Hearing Xiao Yuqin's words, the men fell silent.
I never imagined that life wasn't so easy for girls in the city.
They are thinking too narrowly.
"Mom, are you still in contact with them?"
Xia Lan asked curiously.
"We still keep in touch occasionally, but lately they've really disappeared."
Xiao Yuqin occasionally sees them when she goes grocery shopping.
"When I get back, I'll look for them!"
"Um."
Xia Lan nodded.
If things can be brought together, that would be a good thing.
